Blackstar audio interface responds like a POLAR 2 tube amp for guitarists

An audio interface designed for everyone who records guitars. POLAR's “Enhance” function restores the real touch, feel, and response of an amplifier with a simple flip of a switch, and enhances the sound of all software amplifier plug-ins. In addition to improving nuance, “Enhance” is designed with an input stage where digital clipping does not occur, so users can quickly set levels without worrying about clipping. Inspired by famous vintage studio preamps, the mic preamp delivers warm, rich tones and authentic character, enhancing the overall depth and quality of the sound. It comes with a studio software collection including St. James Plugin Suite (worth $129/£129/€129), Ableton Live Lite, ReLab LX480 Essentials Reverb, Melodyne Essential, and more.
